The loft bedroom is furnished with a queen bed, and the den has a double futon…… the den has its’ own doorway onto the garden.

Southpoint Beach Cottage is a beautiful and secret world unto itself- perfect for a soul satisfying holiday..

Near the southern tip of Cortes Island the almost hidden driveway opens to reveal a three acre forested playground featuring an awesome hammock perch, a frisbee friendly meadow, and a stunning picnic table location with a trail to a private beach below for kayaking, swimming, or quiet meditation. An average day may include watching the sunrise or the moonrise from the artfully landscaped deck, spending time in the garden with its nearby orchard, or simply surveying the stunning panoramic views of Baker Pass and Twin and Hernando Islands. This truly lovely contemporary cottage is ideal for romantic couples, artists, anyone who thrills at the sight of eagles, mountains, and sea. It is an easy walk to Hollyhock or through a forest path to the sandy beaches of Smelt Bay Provincial Park. More photos

The kitchen is compact, but fully equipped. There is a small office space as well as a pantry and laundry area at the back of the house.

The master bedroom looks out through floor-to-ceiling windows onto a natural garden of rock, moss and evergreen. The adjoining bathroom is almost ‘a sculpture’ of tile, glass and wood, again surrounded by the outdoor landscape of green, inviting you to relax in the tub.

There is a loft with a queen bed – the steep ladder restricts its’ use to agile guests – but the comfort is worth the climb. In addition, there is a single futon in the living room to allow a 5th family member to join you. more photos.

A tiled hallway opens onto the main living area. The sunken living room is graced with curved oak steps and large picture windows with spectacular ocean views of the Georgia Strait, Twin Islands, and the Coastal Mountain Range. The adjacent TV room is equipped with satellite TV, DVD, and stereo. The dining area is in the center of the main floor with a large dining table to accommodate family and friends.

The spacious, open kitchen, with custom cherry and birds eye maple cabinets, custom counter tops, and a convenient island, provides a fabulous work space for cooks. There is even a low counter designed for the baker or for smaller children. The kitchen is fully equipped with a dishwasher, microwave, fridge, gas stove and the basic small appliances.

On a deck off of the main floor, you will find a gas BBQ with deck chairs and a table for outdoor dining and lounging. Stairs lead down to the yard. From the deck (and most windows of the house) you can watch the eagle tree on the corner of the property. There have been up to three eagles perched there at once – such a treat!

There are three bedrooms upstairs, The master bedroom has a queen bed with a grand ocean vista to the east, and also southerly garden views. The second bedroom has a king bed with a view to the old growth Douglas Fir and a westerly exposure, while the third bedroom has a queen bed and a view to the ocean. A second single bed can be provided for one of the bedrooms as required. There is also a fold out couch in the TV room on the main floor. A new bathroom has just been completed upstairs with 2 sinks, toilet, shower stall and soaker tub. There is a also a 3 piece bathroom downstairs with a shower and vintage pedestal sink.

To preserve the white oak floors both upstairs and down, we request that shoes be removed at the front door and dogs be kept outside. The expansive fenced yard, with wire garden fencing 6’ high, keeps the deer out and keeps the children, dogs, and horses in the yard. The yard has a large open grassy area where horses once grazed (bring your horse!) and another flatter area on the water side of the home to play on. A cement basketball court provides extra fun for all of “the kids”.

Past the garden area on the south side of the home there is a deer trail/ path/ steps down the bluff to the beautiful beach below. Hollyhock is a fifteen minute walk up the road. Smelt Bay is a short drive away, as are Hague Lake and the village of Manson’s Landing with store, bank, post office, and restaurant – or you can cycle along quiet roads and well maintained trails.

This is an ideal home for a family retreat — it is a quiet, private, and located where the forest meets the sea. more photos
